Sometimes people say really stupid things. Most of the time, those comments can be easily dismissed. However sometimes even when a comment seems totally insane, it needs to be paid attention to because it may be a clue to future events.<\/p>\n
Yesterday Breitbart<\/a> posted an article about a recent comment made by Representative Adam Schiff.<\/p>\n The article reports:<\/p>\n Representative Adam Schiff (D-CA) said Wednesday on MSNBC\u2019s \u201cDeadline\u201d that we could not ignore the so-called predominant domestic threat was the white national threat and \u201csome of the folks are part of the Trump base.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n Wallace (Nicole Wallace) said, \u201cI want to ask you about the work on the intelligence committee. Is it different now that the intel chiefs testified to the tragic new reality that the gravest threats to the country are domestic violent extremists? Currently, under the threat warning, we know about radicalized by the big lie still being repeated by Donald Trump. I believe six times since last week and some COVID restrictions where he was also a leading and rater with tweets of liberate Michigan and liberate Virginia?\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n …Schiff said, \u201cWe ought to be able to find common ground that the predominant terrorism threat facing the country right now is a domestic threat. The predominant part of that domestic threat is white national threat. That has international, transnational links as well. We can\u2019t ignore that because of a political sensitivity that some of the folks are part of the Trump base. So I hope we can find common ground. We need to make sure we protect the country.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n I firmly believe that this is the prelude to the talking points that will be utilized if the audit of the Arizona presidential vote shows systematic fraud. Rather than face the issue and admit there is a problem, people saying that there was systematic fraud will be charged with undermining the election and labeled as domestic terrorists.<\/p>\n In another Breitbart<\/a> article that was posted yesterday, Senator Schumer had the following comment:<\/p>\n On Wednesday\u2019s broadcast of MSNBC\u2019s \u201cThe ReidOut,\u201d Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) stated that if Democrats can\u2019t come to a bipartisan agreement on voting rights legislation \u201ceverything will be on the table to get it done.\u201d And that one of the pieces of leverage he has for Democratic senators is that if Democrats don\u2019t block some state election laws, \u201cthe chances of our caucus retaining the majority and people who are up for re-election like Kelly and Warnock winning is greatly diminished.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n Essentially what he is saying is that if the Democrats don’t tilt the playing field, they can’t win. Federalizing elections (which is against the Constitution) and calling anyone who opposes what you are doing domestic terrorists is one way to tilt the playing field.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Sometimes people say really stupid things.
